As we become adults, sometimes we tend to stifle our self-expression and creativity. Remember when you could just put your hands in a couple pots of primary paint and just wipe them ecstatically on some parchment paper? Do you remember the feeling of happiness it created to see the product of your own hands?

If you really want to find happiness, try doing something artistic, even colorful. Paint a wall in your house with a tiny mural. Have the whole family join in and add their special touches. Whenever you are down, just go and let your true colors shine through.

Not only will you let you true colors shine through, but you will get to see the inner working of your friends and family. And that is a beautiful thing.

Oscar Wilde says it best, “Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.”
